Overview
The NCSBA is a non-profit corporation led by Officers elected annually and governed by an Executive Committee consisting of the Officers, and twelve Regional Directors. Membership records and meeting registration is administered by the Membership Secretary.
Although the coordination and planning take place at the state level, the real strength and work of the NCSBA occur at the county level. There are 76 affiliated Local Chapters representing about 86 of North Carolina’s 100 counties, most of which meet monthly.
